How to Make Coconut Jasmine Rice
- Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
- In a medium saucepan, heat the coconut oil over medium heat.
- Add the rinsed jasmine rice and toast for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until lightly fragrant.
- Pour in the coconut milk, water, and salt. Stir well to combine.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium-high heat.
- If using, stir in the brown sugar.
- Reduce heat to low, cover the saucepan ¾ of the way, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until most of the liquid is absorbed.
- Remove from heat and let stand, covered completely, for 5-10 minutes to allow the rice to steam.
- Fluff the rice with a fork. If using, stir in the lime zest.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
